Features

The Kershaw Skyline is a liner locking folding knife with a clip that can be reversed for tip up or tip down carry. The Skyline is a flipper design, meaning it can be opened easily with one finger and a flip of the wrist.

The Skyline is super lightweight at just 2.3 ounces – it’s the first thing I notice when I pick it up. It’s one of those knives that you can easily forget you have on you. The Skyline has a G-10 handle that is nicely textured, and along with the finger groove provides a good feel in the hand. The Skyline also has a lanyard hole if that’s your thing.

Perhaps the greatest feature of the Skyline though is the price. At the time of writing, you could buy a Kershaw Skyline for less than $35. That’s amazing value for such a great knife.

Wrapping Up

For EDC, you really can’t go wrong with a Kershaw Skyline. I’ve had mine for well over a year now and it’s help up well. For the price, it’s hard to beat.
